Turning Incomplete Submissions into Actionable Intelligence

Report Assistant Agent

Every vulnerability report tells a story. A researcher discovers a weakness, documents their findings, and sends them off, expecting a rapid response.

But somewhere between discovery and resolution, the story stalls.

Reports arrive missing context or details that analysts need to normalize and validate. Messages bounce back and forth for clarification. Developers wait for actionable direction. The work continues, but the momentum is gone.

These pauses may seem small, but they add up, stretching response times, delaying fixes, and keeping exposures open longer than anyone wants. This is the natural drag that happens when human workflows meet the scale and speed of modern exposure management.

How Agentic AI Keeps Work Moving

Instead of waiting for clarification, agentic AI can help researchers get it right from the start. As they create submissions, it offers real-time guidance, checking scope, structure, and completeness while staying within program policy.

By improving reports at the point of creation, AI agents can eliminate the back-and-forth that slows everyone down. Analysts receive reports that are ready to validate. Researchers see faster results. Developers get cleaner, more actionable findings sooner.

A System of Agents That Work as One

The Report Assistant Agent is one member of Hai’s Agentic AI system, a team of intelligent, collaborative agents that keep the entire vulnerability elimination workflow in motion.

Each agent plays a specific role:

  • Report Assistant Agent ensures complete, structured submissions from the start.
  • Deduplication Agent automatically identifies and removes duplicate reports, so analysts focus only on unique findings.
  • Priority Escalation Agent analyzes context, sensitive data, and impact to alert teams the moment a high-risk issue appears.

Together, these agents create flow across the security lifecycle, moving from input to validation to action with fewer interruptions and faster outcomes.

That’s what makes Hai different. It’s not a tool or a feature, it’s an evolving system that learns, coordinates, and accelerates how security work gets done.

Why It Matters for Security Leaders

For CISOs and program managers, this coordination translates into tangible impact:

  • Faster validation and shorter exposure windows.
  • Focused teams that spend time on risk, not repetition.
  • Consistent collaboration between analysts, developers, and researchers.
  • Instant escalation when something truly critical is found.

The results speak for themselves.

“Hai has significantly reduced the time my team spends sifting through bug reports or creating responses, allowing us to focus more on resolving vulnerabilities quickly.”

A Fortune 500 customer described the system as the bridge between technical findings and stakeholder-ready intelligence, helping teams turn raw submissions into risk insights.

Secure AI in the Research Workflow

While Hai accelerates validation for organizations, it also empowers the researchers who fuel those programs.

Hai for Hackers brings the same AI capabilities directly into the HackerOne platform, giving hackers secure, built-in access to intelligent support without ever leaving their workflow.

Researchers can:

  • Bridge language gaps for smoother global collaboration.
  • Communicate more effectively with program owners.
  • Explore new ideas on what to hack next.

Unlike public LLMs, Hai is privacy-first and purpose-built. No data leaves the platform, no context is shared externally, and every prompt stays within HackerOne’s secure environment.

It’s the same collaboration researchers know, now powered by AI, designed for their work.

Coordinated Intelligence Starts Here

Even when reports need more work, Hai keeps the process moving, helping researchers learn faster and programs validate sooner.

By combining intelligent agents with researcher insight, Hai turns individual reports into collective progress. This isn’t just faster triage. It’s coordinated security intelligence, where AI helps researchers and defenders work together at the speed of risk.
